Advice needed for someone who is frequently accused of not being present mentally?

I have been told that I have a demeanor that appears aloof, bored, or not mentally present. My mind does work differently as I’m creative, but people severely overreact. I really don’t miss much. But when I try to explain to hostile ppl that it looks worse than it is, they hear confirmation of their bias instead. It often ends in me losing my job or having no chance to advance. I’ve been tested by psychologists, I have no adhd or anything. Just a severe anxiety disorder and a creative mind. How to I handle this? Advice?
